As many of you know (including the three pictured above), my husband and I
do not create children that sleep. They do not like going to sleep and do not stay
asleep at night. I created a monster with #1 and decided to get her out of my bed
she would have to bunk with a sister for transition. I am in hopes that one day she
will sleep in her own room but that may be several years (like 10 or more)
down the road. After our hike, a stop for dinner and still no sleeping kids,
I decided tonight was the night. We drove over to see the bunk beds I picked
out online. The girls loved them and we headed home four tired ladies!
Getting them ordered and delivered took some work but thanks to my wonderful
family and a very kind friend it all happened. The beds arrived and the girls
were thrilled. The evidence is suggesting my plan will work but progress
has been slow. I think after a few weeks we should have the kinks worked out!
The layout is Gabi and Is on bottom and Mella on top. I had no idea my
mother would text me five million times questioning my choice to let
a three year old sleep on a top bunk by herself . . . . . well she did!
After her fears were put to rest the girls had a great first night on their
new beds. My monkey children seem to think they double as a jungle
gym but I am sure the new will wear off????
I guess only time will tell if the new beds bring us all more sleep or not?
If the bags under my eyes start shrinking and I begin to be a more
interesting and alert person you will know it worked.
